A couple of weeks ago I posted some inspiration for outdoor living and, now that summer finally seems to be putting in an appearance, we’re beginning to turn the plans for our garden into a reality. A few tomato and pepper plants have already sprung up (having a south-facing plot seems to have brought out the Good Life in us), and now we’re focusing on making the patio area usable in time for BBQ . . .
The Other Art Fair
Just a quick post today to let you know about The Other Art Fair, which is taking place at The Arnolfini on Bristol's Harbourside this weekend (5th-7th June). The fair showcases works by 70 emerging artists before they gain gallery representation, giving visitors the chance to chat with and buy directly from them.

Urban Jungle Bloggers | A ‘plant gang’
The latest Urban Jungle Bloggers challenge was to create a ‘plant gang’ – a grouping of plants in all shapes, sizes and textures that celebrates the rich diversity of greenery available.
